Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a diffuser for liquid products in the form of aerosols.
  • Diffusers of the type already exist comprising a pump mounted in a sealed manner in the neck of a container by means of a fixing sleeve and provided, on the one hand, with an internal metering chamber and, on the other hand , a spray tube which projects outside where it is engaged in a push button.
  • This nozzle tube is capable of being supplied by the metering chamber and of communicating with a transverse ejection duct equipped with a spray nozzle.
  • the ejection duct and / or the nozzle may be blocked by the dry residue which prohibits thus any subsequent dissemination operation.
  • the present invention aims to solve these technical problems satisfactorily.
  • a diffuser of the preceding type comprising a pump engaged in a sealed manner in the neck of a container and provided, on the one hand, with an internal metering chamber and, on the other hand, a nozzle tube which projects outside where it is engaged in a push button, said nozzle tube being capable of being supplied by the metering chamber and of communicating with a transverse conduit of ejection equipped with a spray nozzle, characterized in that it comprises, upstream of the ejection duct, an external delivery or suction chamber of a mixture of air and liquid product into which the tube opens nozzle and which contains a piston integral with the push button.
  • said external delivery chamber coaxially surrounds the nozzle tube.
  • the underside of the push-button has a cylindrical bore with grooved walls intended to cover the end part of the spray tube while allowing the passage of the product towards the external delivery chamber.
  • said piston is carried by the lower edge of a cylindrical end piece which is preferably formed from the wall of the lower bore of the push button.
  • said external delivery chamber is delimited laterally by the external wall of the spray tube, on the one hand, and by the internal wall of a central cylindrical sleeve carried by the fixing sleeve of the pump, d 'somewhere else.
  • the bottom of the delivery chamber consists of a part of the upper face of a flange bearing axially on the pump and transversely on the external wall of the nozzle tube.
  • the flange forms a connecting spacer between the side wall of the sleeve and the sleeve and, preferably, the ejection conduit is formed in the thickness of the flange.
  • the inlet orifice of the ejection duct is located in the lower part of the external chamber.
  • said piston is formed of a planar annular face with an inclined peripheral edge formed if necessary, of a flexible lip.
  • the operation of the diffuser of the invention is optimized when the volume of said delivery chamber is equal to that of the metering chamber of the pump.
  • the diffuser comprises a locking sleeve externally furnished with a hoop provided, on the one hand, with an orifice coming opposite the spray nozzle and, on the other hand, with a shoulder coming to bear on the upper edge of the sleeve and forming a high stop for the push button.
  • the push button has a peripheral retaining ring trapped under the shoulder of the hoop.
  • the underside of the sleeve is provided with a groove forming a vent for the pump.
  • this groove is formed on the underside of the flange.
  • the diffuser of the invention couples a metering chamber, internal to the pump, with a delivery and mixing chamber, external to said pump.
  • This coupling makes it possible to compensate for the pressure losses due to the path of the liquid product from the container to the outlet of the nozzle and thus to ensure a more energetic spraying rate.
  • the mixing of the product with the air contained in the external delivery chamber is carried out under pressure and thus leads to better homogenization of the sprayed dose.
  • the raising of the push button under the action of the pump mechanism creates a vacuum in the external chamber which results in a suction of the fraction of the product still in the ejection duct and / or in the nozzle.
  • the fixed position of the nozzle makes it possible to cover the pump with the hoop and, moreover, to obtain greater precision of the jet.
  • the diffuser shown in Figures 1a to 1c comprises a pump 1 whose body 11 containing the mechanism (not shown) is sealingly engaged in the neck C of a container of liquid product P intended to be dispensed in the form of a aerosol (see figelb).
  • the upper part of the body 11 of the pump is fitted inside the neck C with a radial tightening and is possibly locked in this position by cooperation of the latching elements 2b of the skirt 2a of a socket 2 with the rim of the C-neck.
  • Another embodiment consists in fixing the pump body, the diameter of which is less than that of the neck of the container, by sealing the socket on said neck.
  • the body 11 traditionally contains an internal metering chamber and a piston and spring mechanism cooperating with intake and exhaust valves (not shown).
  • the internal metering chamber opens, in the open position of the pump, into a nozzle tube 10, the lower part of which is integral with the piston of the pump and which projects outside the container where it is engaged in a button. pusher 3 possibly removable.
  • the nozzle tube 10 is therefore capable of being supplied by the metering chamber and of communicating, moreover, with a transverse ejection conduit 21 equipped with a spray nozzle 22, by example of the vortex type (such as a MICROMIST nozzle, registered trademark SOFAB).
  • a transverse ejection conduit 21 equipped with a spray nozzle 22 by example of the vortex type (such as a MICROMIST nozzle, registered trademark SOFAB).
  • the diffuser of the invention further comprises, upstream of the ejection duct 21, a chamber 20 for discharging or sucking a mixture of air and liquid product P into which the nozzle tube 10 opens and which contains a piston 32 integral with the push button 3.
  • the delivery chamber 20, the volume of which is variable, is produced inside the bush 2 while being located outside the pump and the container.
  • the chamber 20 here coaxially surrounds the nozzle tube 10 while communicating, moreover, with the ejection conduit 21 and the nozzle 22.
  • the underside of the push button 3 has a cylindrical bore 30 with grooved walls, intended to cover the upper end of the spray tube 10 while allowing the passage of product P towards the delivery chamber 20.
  • a groove 31 which extends diametrically on the bottom 30a and parallel to the generators on the inner side face and on either side.
  • This arrangement ensures radial tightening of the nozzle tube 10 in the bore 30 without hindering the escape of the liquid product P.
  • the piston 32 is carried by the lower edge of a cylindrical end piece 33 which projects downwards from the lower face of the push button 3.
  • the piston 32 is formed of a flat annular face with a peripheral edge inclined downward which ensures the tight and dynamic contact of the internal wall of the end piece 33.
  • the inclined edge is formed of a flexible lip .
  • the nozzle 33 thus forms and delimits the wall of the bore 30 and slides in the chamber 20 by compressing the mixture of air and liquid product P as shown in FIG. 1b.
  • the external delivery chamber 20 is delimited laterally by the external wall of the spray tube 10, on the one hand, and by the inner wall of a central cylindrical sleeve 23 carried by the sleeve 2, on the other hand.
  • the bottom of the discharge chamber 20 consists of a part of the upper face of a flange 24 which bears axially on the body 11 of the pump 1 and transversely on the external wall of the nozzle tube 10.
  • An orifice 25 is produced in the center of the sleeve 23 and through the flange 24 for the passage of the nozzle tube 10.
  • the inner edge of the orifice 25 is provided with a chamfer oriented towards the pump and ensures leaktight contact with the external wall of the tube 10 so as to prevent any leakage of the air / product mixture from the bottom of the chamber 20 during discharge.
  • the flange 24 also forms a connecting spacer between the outer skirt 2a of the sleeve 2 and the central sleeve 23.
  • the flange 24 is here made in one piece with the sleeve 2.
  • the ejection conduit 21 is formed in the thickness of the flange 24 which is then locally reinforced.
  • the underside of the flange 24 is provided with a groove 26 forming a vent for the pump 1 by communicating with the interior of the pump body as soon as it is actuated.
  • the inlet orifice 21a of the ejection duct 21 is preferably located in the lower part of the chamber 20 in order to optimize the delivery and to effect the complete expulsion of the dose of mixture from the chamber internal pump.
  • the height of the nozzle 33 is greater than or equal to that of the sleeve 23.
  • the locking sleeve 2 is externally lined with a hoop 4 made, for example, of anodized aluminum, provided, on the one hand, with an orifice 40 coming opposite the nozzle 22 and, on the other hand, a shoulder 41 bearing on the upper edge of the sleeve 2.
  • a hoop 4 made, for example, of anodized aluminum, provided, on the one hand, with an orifice 40 coming opposite the nozzle 22 and, on the other hand, a shoulder 41 bearing on the upper edge of the sleeve 2.
  • the shoulder 41 forms both a means for vertical positioning of the hoop 4 on the sleeve and a high stop for the push button 3 which has for this purpose a peripheral retaining ring 34 trapped under the shoulder 41 of the hoop .
  • This dose penetrates via the groove 31 into the external chamber 20 where, concomitantly, the air initially present is compressed by the descent of the nozzle 33 in the sleeve 23.
  • the ascent of the end piece 33 in the sleeve 23 generates a vacuum in the external chamber 20.
  • the walls, in particular of the nozzle 22, of the conduit 21 and of the chamber 20, are made with a material containing a non-migrating bactericidal agent.
